The hub will be the focal point for business engagement activities undertaken by the Chamber in the Speke-Garston area with a ‘day of action’ taking place every month, comprising business tours, policy engagement activity, events and marketing activity. The hotel will provide resources and space for Chamber staff and businesses on such days.

The first day of action is taking place on Thursday 20th September and will feature a networking event and exhibition for businesses in the area, enabling them to connect with the Chamber and each other over lunch.

The Chamber will also lead a morning tour of Jaguar Land Rover for strategic partners and bring partners and China Club members to launch of Jin, the Crowne Plaza Liverpool – John Lennon Airport’s authentic Chinese restaurant at an evening reception.

Paul Gallon, General Manager of the hotel stated: “The hotel is a perfect location for businesses to utilise given its ideal location within the Speke/Garston area, proximity to the Estuary business park and airport, and the amenities we have for businesses to use. We look forward to welcoming the Chamber and its members to the hotel on the 20th September and particularly to the launch of our new restaurant.”

Chamber CEO Paul Cherpeau commented: “The Chamber has large concentrations of business members in areas of the city that we now have the opportunity to better engage and serve by having Chamber activity concentrated in these areas. We see the establishment of the South Liverpool hub as the first of several hubs which will launch in the coming months.”

Lee Stanley, Head of Business Development at the Chamber stated: “The establishment of our first hub demonstrates our commitment to being a city-wide Chamber that looks beyond the city centre. As someone who grew up in Garston, it is great to have our first business hub taking place in my old neighbourhood which has developed so much in recent years. We’re particularly excited that the Crowne Plaza will be our Partners in this venture over the coming twelve months and we look forward to supporting business growth and improvement in the area.”
